Quantifying groundwater exploitation induced subsidence in the Rafsanjan plain, southeastern Iran, using InSAR time-series and in situ measurements

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the results of an InSAR time series analysis obtained by the exploitation of Envisat, ALOS and Sentinel-1 (S1) SAR data archives between June 2004, and May 2016, to investigate land subsidence in the plain of southeastern Iran.
Journal ArticleDOI

Land subsidence in Mashhad Valley, northeast Iran: results from InSAR, levelling and GPS

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used InSAR measurements to detect the temporal and spatial pattern of surface deformation in northeast Iran, near the city of Mashhad, and found that subsidence occurs within a northwest-southeast elongated ellipticshaped bowl along the axis of the Mashhad valley, with a peak amplitude of ∼28−30 cm yr −1 for the 2003-2005 time period.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 2003 Bam (SE Iran) earthquake: precise source parameters from satellite radar interferometry

TL;DR: In this article, the authors used a Sobel Edge Filter on the phase-unwrapped deformation field of the 2003 Bam earthquake to detect the rupture of a 4-5 km wide fault system with the known main branch running between Bam and Baravat.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential of Satellite Remote Sensing and GIS for Landslide Hazard Assessment in Southern Kyrgyzstan (Central Asia)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors developed a satellite remote sensing and GIS-based system for quantitatively oriented and spatially differentiated hazard assessment in the Fergana Basin of Kyrgyzstan.
Journal ArticleDOI

The 26 May 2006 magnitude 6.4 Yogyakarta earthquake south of Mt. Merapi volcano: Did lahar deposits amplify ground shaking and thus lead to the disaster?

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the first location results, which suggest that the Yogyakarta earthquake occurred at 10-20 km distance east of the disaster area, outside of the topographic and structural depression along the Opak River.
